As a result, the club and the German coach mutually decided to stop work in June. The team is in a bad phase and the coach lives with pressure given the bad results.

“We have agreed to end our working relationship at the end of this season. Until then, I will certainly continue to do everything I can with my coaching staff to achieve maximum success,” said Tuchel.

It’s worth remembering that Bayern is in crisis, intensified by defeats in the last three games – the last time this happened was in 2015 -, all away from home.

Starting with the 3-0 victory against Bayer Leverkusen, in a direct confrontation at the top of the German Championship. 

The Bavarian team also lost to Lazio, 1-0, in the first game of the Champions League round of 16, and to Bochum, 3-2, last Sunday, in the Bundesliga. This result left the team eight points behind Bayer, the league leader.

“Our goal is a new football direction with a new coach for the 2024/25 season. Until then, every individual at the club is expressly called upon to achieve as much as possible in the Champions League and Bundesliga. I also explicitly hold the team accountable in this regard” , declared Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen.

Now, Bayern returns to the field next Saturday, when they host RB Leipzig, in the 23rd round of the Bundesliga. The Champions League return match against Lazio, in Germany, is scheduled for March 5th.
